  • The Edo State Government has debunked claims by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) alleging that Governor Monday Okpebholo approved N6 billion as compensation to so-called ā€œFulani terroristsā€ following the recent Uromi killings. In a strongly-worded statement on Thursday, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Fred Itua, described the accusation as a reckless falsehood designed to incite ethnic conflict and destabilise the peace of Edo State. The controversy stems from the events of 28 March, when sixteen hunters from Kano State were killed in the Udune Efandion community of Uromi. In the aftermath, Governor Okpebholo visited Kano to sympathise with the families of the victims and appeal for calm, while a delegation from Kano later travelled to Edo to engage in peace discussions. IPOB, in a statement released on 21 April, alleged that the Governor had secretly approved a N6 billion compensation package to appease the bereaved families a claim which the Edo State Government swiftly dismissed as baseless and inflammatory. ā€œThere is no truth whatsoever in the claim that Governor Monday Okpebholo approved or paid N6 billion to any group,ā€ Itua said. ā€œThis is a fictitious and malicious lie concocted by IPOB to sow seeds of discord and destabilise the harmony we have nurtured in Edo State.ā€ The government warned that IPOB’s repeated attempts to manipulate public sentiment and incite ethnic hostility under the cover of activism would not succeed in Edo State. ā€œIt has become a known tactic of this proscribed group to exploit tragic situations to spread hate and misinformation,ā€ the statement added. ā€œTheir agenda of violence and ethnic disintegration has no place here.ā€ Emphasising its commitment to unity, security and justice for all residents, the Edo State Government reaffirmed its stance against any form of ethnic or religious discrimination. The statement also urged security agencies to investigate the source of the inciting publication and prosecute those behind it, stressing that public order and peace must not be jeopardised by dangerous propaganda. ā€œWe remain resolute in our commitment to justice, peace and the protection of all Edo people, regardless of background,ā€ the government declared. ā€œWe will continue to uphold the values of unity, tolerance and truth in the face of reckless attempts to destabilise our state.ā€

The state Chief of Police, Emeka Nwonyi, while marching the cops before columnists in Port Harcourt on Tuesday said he was striving to free the order of rotten ones.Eight police officers captured in for coercion, attack

Nwonyi said, “You can see some cops. They have been in detainment for over two weeks now for an offense. They are not from this order, but rather we captured them to show that we are here to cleanse ourselves.

“I want to be challenged on that because I don’t think any other organization has been more purgative than the police in cleaning up the bad eggs in their system.”

The police manager didn’t, be that as it may, uncover the personalities of the cops.

Essentially, Nwonyi strutted one more arrangement of four police officers, including three Reviewers, captured for purportedly attacking a female worker.

He said the police officers were on a pause and-search activity when they supposedly attacked the woman around Arcania Intersection, Ada George Street in Port Harcourt on Tuesday.

He, “Endless supply of the protest, the commandant of the CP Observing Unit got the ball rolling and distinguished the officials as men of an Enemy of Cultism Unit on a pause and-search drove by Reviewer

Agba Emmanuel, and three others specifically Auditor Abgani Peter, Assessor Ozenewa Amadi and Sargeant Akuigbo Bartholomew.

“They have all been captured and in authority going through cross examination.

Additionally, I’m interesting to the woman who was attacked to come to my office and provide us with her side of the occurrence for legitimate examination to be completed.”
